Planning Services
Urban and rural development planning is fundamental for sustainable social and economic growth.
Not only does it drive positive change, but it’s also the framework that helps leaders implement their vision and mission.
Development planning is considered the framework which public, private and business development budgets are driven and guided by. This framework enables urban and rural expansion to occur in an orderly, responsible manner.
Furthermore, successful urban and rural planning lays the foundation for continuity through political cycles often resulting in an increase investment.
At Umsebe Development Planners we offer a diversity of services under the development planning umbrella.
These include:
Township Establishment & Formalization
Township establishment is the conversion of land into residential, commercial or industrial properties.
This time-consuming, intensive process requires the involvement of numerous specialists and professionals including township and urban development planners. Time is money and therefore it’s imperative for developers to work with a professional team of township planners that offer a diverse set of services.
Rezoning
Rezoning is the process of amending town planning scheme conditions pertaining to a particular property.
This occurs when the classification assigned for the use of land is amended for it to be used for another purpose. A good example is rezoning a piece of land which is zoned for residential use into one with business rights.
Subdivisions & Consolidation of Land
Subdivision of land means exactly what it sounds like – the division of a single portion of land into several smaller ones. Consolidation, on the other hand, is the exact opposite.
It is used to improve rural infrastructure and to implement developmental and environmental policies improving environmental sustainability and agriculture.
